Wisdom: I learned over the past few weeks how amazing this whole pregnancy thing really is. I mean I knew that before, but all the changes and watching the growth of the belly, and learning about your baby's personality already. Nothing short of a miracle! But I have also learned it's so hard! Being sick and trying to overcome the illness while pregnant, was really tough. Feeling every ache and pain is hard, and I learned how awful my attitude was before pregnancy about women who would complain. Pregnancy isn't all rainbows and flowers. There are some definite tough times in there. And just because a woman might complain about a pain she is feeling, doesn't mean she doesn't appreciate the gift. I know I wish I hadn't felt as awful as I did, and the back aches and rib aches are not all that wonderful. But I'm also incredibly thankful for this gift too. I think it was a good wake up call to me.
Looking forward to: Well my shower is in 2 weeks!! :) I can't wait to see my sister and spend the Friday before with her! :) I look forward to seeing my Mom and all the dear friends and family who are able to come as well and celebrate little Caleb! I also continue to wait and hope that Todd will feel Caleb soon. I know he wants to feel him SOOO bad! :)
I love the baby bump! it brings my heart so much jo!y we are hoping to try and start for number two later this year. I won't lie. I'm a little anxious when I remember all of the heartache and disappointment in trying to conceive our last but I also remember how great God's goodness is and I look forward to seeing what he will do with our family. keep the pictures coming! you look great!
